4 Smart reasons to consider a hybrid

If you are considering investing in a new ride this year, take a good long look at a hybrid, because these earth-friendly vehicles have certainly come a long way in recent years. Sleek, stylish, and comfortable, hybrid vehicles also have all of the latest high-tech features and functions woven into every pore. Here we will look at some of the many reasons why a hybrid may be calling your name too.

1. Tread lightly

Hybrid vehicles offer an easy way to play your part in safeguarding the environment, because everything about them has been made to be as eco-friendly as possible. Not only do they offer better fuel efficiency and therefore produce fewer harmful emissions than traditional gasoline powered vehicles, but they utilize a broad range of high tech features (such as regenerative braking and start-stop technology) to make the most of every drop of fuel. You are also likely to find eco-friendly fabrics and materials used throughout the cabin of a hybrid vehicle.

2. Save money

You’ll be filling up a lot less often when you drive a hybrid; in fact, you can get fuel economy ratings as low as 4.3L/100km in the city and 4.6L/100km on the highway. Better yet, buying a hybrid vehicle in Canada can now mean being eligible for sizeable government tax incentives, which can save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars on the initial sale price. Hybrid vehicles also now hold their value far better than ever before, so if you decide to sell or trade yours in one day you’ll get a great return on your investment.

3. Improve your driving

Your driving habits play a big role in how well your vehicle can perform; for example, your accelerating and braking habits impact not just your fuel economy ratings, but also how quickly your ride’s many crucial parts wear, tear, or become damaged. This is why many hybrid vehicles now come with real-time driver monitoring systems designed to teach you how to drive as efficiently as possible; as a result, not only will you use less fuel, but you’ll help extend the lifespan of your vehicle.

4. Lead the way

Investing in a hybrid is a fantastic way to show family, friends, and other drivers that you care about the environment, which not only helps to set a great example, but it increases the likelihood that they will choose to do the same. Hybrids are a particularly wise choice for those looking to impress business partners or even clients, as it proves that your claims to care about the environment are more than just words.
